The new interdisciplinary education program Brain and Mind, which draws on medicine, natural sciences and engineering to seek answers to current questions such as “How do the mechanisms behind the brain’s information processing work? How does the brain create a mind?<\/strong> What is the information structure of the mind? How do biological changes affect the structure of the brain and the mind?” is preparing to accept its first students.<\/p>\n\n

The Brain Mind graduate education and research program, which will be conducted in collaboration with Bah\u00e7e\u015fehir University Faculty of Medicine and Kadir Has University Faculty of Engineering and Natural Sciences, is preparing to accept its first students in the 2024-25 academic year. The program will primarily address neuroscience research with three types of data: brain tissue examination, Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI), and electroencephalogram signals (EEG). The data obtained by medical doctors and molecular biology experts at Bah\u00e7e\u015fehir University Faculty of Medicine will be examined by mathematics, physics, and data science experts working in the field of computational neuroscience at Kadir Has University Faculty of Engineering and Natural Sciences. This collaboration is laying the foundations for a program that aims to integrate experimental research, data modeling, and analysis at world standards. The program will provide full scholarship education and life support to master’s and doctoral students who will be accepted with a limited number of quotas. Life support will be provided at least equally with T\u00dcB\u0130TAK scholarships, and students will be accepted to the program with 100% scholarship. <\/p>\n\n

The administrative part of the program will be carried out by T\u00fcrker K\u0131l\u0131\u00e7 (Brain and Nerve Surgery), Deniz Ero\u011flu (Complex and Dynamic Systems), Nuray S\u00f6\u011f\u00fcnmez Erdo\u011fan (Bioinformatics) and Timu\u00e7in Av\u015far (Molecular Biology and Genetics). Our academicians, who will also support the education, will be supported by respected researchers in the disciplines of neuroscience, bioinformatics, molecular biology, genetics, radiology and mathematics. Students will receive training in the field of brain and mind in industry and research centers outside the medical school environment, and in the medical school, they will have the opportunity to increase their qualifications by learning how neuroscience data is obtained and how it is analyzed with machine learning methods through on-site learning and direct access to data. While investigating problems in the field of neuroscience, students will gain experience in the computational and experimental methods required to solve these problems and, if they wish, they will be able to work with expert researchers on the problems they produce and the data they generate. <\/p>\n\n
